why I’m interested in teaching
Inspiration.
to teach = to inspire.
That’s my view of education. As mentioned in earlier blog entries, I believe education always results in actions. Practical. Not only head knowledge that cause paralysis.
To teach simply means to take the first (and maybe the second) step with your student so s/he knows how to walk and eventually run. Get your student experience what you’re so passionate about. So s/he can adopt that passion for him/herself.
Seeing one’s student run and dance is worthwhile. It’s inspiring.

Great thoughts, The world needs more teachers that inspire and not just show up and administer tests.
